Ayre Hotel Gran Vía - Barcelona

9.6

Beautiful hotel, close to Metro station so major attractions easily accessible. Staff were extremely efficient and helpful. My only complaint would be the cleaning ladies walking straight into our room at 8.30 on first morning and returning 20 minutes later - we knew to put the do not disturb sign up next morning! Would definitely recommend this hotel.

9.5

We loved this Hotel! It was a great balance of quaint and modern. The room was spacious and clean. The staff was very helpful with getting us checked in and recommendations on transportation and resteraunts. It was a block from the Subway and a tour bus stop, but in a cute local neighborhood too.

7.2

Good 4* hotel with modern clean rooms; the only disadvantage is probably its distance from the city centre (30 mins walk, 3-4 metro stops). There are of course things to do around (Montjuic) and the exit to the airport is that way (10-15 mins by bus).

9.9

Mt. Juvic Also, Hop on, Hop off bus stop is just one block away - from hotel turn right and go up a block. We were directed to a farther bus stop. Location is great - staff was friendly and accommodating - hotel is clean, located well, and a great place to stay. Found more options for food in downtown areas. Use of computer convenient - small fee.

5.7

Very stylish hotel, but some impractical points: bedside cabinet that was simply a solid block of wood might be very contemporary and modern, but a ridiculous waste of useful space. Also, very "stylish" sliding doors throughout are very nice until their bearings need lubrication and they grind and make a frightful noise. Was definitely NOT impressed with the fact that the hotel bar closed ridiculously early - 11 pm - just when you fancy a drink before bed. Staff attitude was "well, go and find somewhere else then" "Do you know anywhere else?" "No, but look around, there must be somewhere..." Charming attitude.

Modern comfortable hotel, excellent location

Loved the hotel! On the map, and reading other reviews, you think it's a further out than it really is. I've been to Barcelona 3 times now, and this was definately my favorite visit, and the hotel really made it. It's in an ideal location, near the Poble Espana and other tourist sights, and only 5 mins on the underground to the Plaza Cataluna. The hotel itself is only a 2 minute walk to the underground station, and it's on the main line (L1), so you are quickly inot the city and all over the place. It's also the right side of the city for the airport, so the taxi was cheaper than going intot the Ramblas or further into the city itself. (20 Euros, and some how more on the way back?!) We only had breakfast, but it was really nice. A good variety of food from fruit to fried eggs. The reception staff were friendly enough too. The room we had (508) was one was overlooking the corner of the main street and was very quiet, nice and clean. The only small complaint would be that the bed had those horrible plastic matress covers on them! I know they are for hygene reason, but they make you sweat, eek they're awful. I know most people want to be on the Ramblas, but having once had my bag pick pocketed there, I keep away from the place now. This hotel is in a great location and I had a really good long week-end. I'll definately be going back, and would definately use this hotel again.

Perfect hotel for visiting Barcelona. Best Quality/price ratio I have ever received.

8.1

IT IS VERY APPRECIATE FREE INTERNET IN ROOMS

8.2

This hotel has a modern feel to it, like The Standard in Los Angeles. The rooms are a bit small and they all face an inner court yard. They were washing the windows while we were resting. The room was also really stuffy. The desk staff was very nice and helpful. They held our luggage for us after we checked out for the day. The restaurant in the hotel is also very nice and quite good. There were a lot of bakeries right near the hotel. It's next door to a main metro station and the tourist buses that take you around the city.

6.1

This hotel was nice, but I wouldn't stay here for the price we paid. It wasn't a bargin and was a metro ride away to Las Ramblas, the water front areas. Also the room service food wasn't great and had very little selection. Other then that the room was clean and big.

8.2

This is a nice, modern, business-type hotel. Travelling with my husband on his first trip to Europe, this was a good "transition" hotel for him, as the facilities are nice, comfortable, and modern. However, it is quite a distance from the center of town (Plaza Catalunya). It is, however, right near Plaza d'Espana and Montjuic sights, with very close Metro and bus stops, or you can use the Bus Turistic rather than public transport if you prefer. Bed is comfortable, shower is wonderful, and the free water in the mini-fridge is a nice touch. The breakfast is a very nice spread but overpriced at 10 Euro.

8.7

Bella struttura nuova e modernissima. Comodissima per visitare il Monjuic e a sole tre fermate di metro dal centro storico.

9.1

One of the best stays we ever had.

9.1

The hotel was really lovely, well-decorated, clean and the staff was excellent. If you were going to a convention it is right near a big convention center, and also near a metro station. It wasn't quite walking distance to very many of the main tourist areas, but is quite close and the neighborhood is nice. The metro is so fast and easy to use, the location isn't a problem at all. I wish there was a store in the hotel where you could buy some snacks, drinks and larger bottles of water (they offer complimentary water in the fridge, which is wonderful), because there is nothing near the hotel. So pick up snacks and drinks before you get on the metro to go back to the hotel if you think you will want them. Other than that the hotel is just excellent, we were very impressed. The staff was excellent as well, extremely helpful and friendly.

9.2

The hotel staff were very helpful & spoke perfect english. Metro Station is a 3 minute walk away. National Gallery around the corner as are The Fountains of Montjuic which are a must at night. Camp Nou is app 15 minutes away on the Metro. We love Barcelona & will be back in August & will stay at this hotel.

7.7

very good!

6.1

Nice clean modern hotel. Staff and service are not so welcoming. Buffet breakfast shouldn't charge different prices for hot or cold items. This is petty. There are no convenience stores around the hotel. The metro station is very close however. My stay was 3 nights.

La camera era spaziosa, pulita e con un gran bel flat tv. La doccia ha superato le aspettative (enorme e con un getto fuori misura favoloso). Se non si necessita soltanto di un caffe e un cornetto, la colazione vale gli 11€ (buffet + piatti caldi da ordinare). Tutto l'albergo ha un design molto moderno, come da foto sul sito. La posizione è ottima: si raggiunge a piedi Piazza di Spagna con le fermate della metro L3 e L5 che portano praticamente ovunque. E' comodissimo pure per il trasferimento da e per l'aereoporto con il bus (20min.). Positiva l'acqua gratis del frigobar, negativo il prezzo per navigare in internet (4€ mezz'ora). BARCELLONA E' FAVOLOSA!!

9.0

Very clean and comfortable hotel rooms. Bathroom very spacious, shower only, no tub, which we didn't mind at all. Only problem, which was not their fault, was street level construction. Also the Metro station entailed a lot of walking underground.

8.5

Overall this was a great hotel in a phenomenal location in Barcelona. The access to the Museum of Modern Art (there is a great fountain show which starts in the evening every night) couldn't have been better, and the metro was a very short distance from the hotel. The public transportation was very accessible and easy to use, especially for first time travellers to Europe. The airport is also very close and should run about 12-15 euros to get you to the hotel. Our room was spacious and very clean, and the staff were both friendly and accomodating. The only complaint we had was the fact that the bed was very hard, which we found to be the case in every hotel we stayed at in Spain (there were 4 total). The restauraunt food was mediocre and a bit expensive. There are a few great cafes down the street which serve great food at a very reasonable price. There is also a supermarket close to the hotel which is very handy, and the rooms come with a small fridge to store food bought there. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would absolutely stay there again.

8.2

Hotel moderno e confortevole. La colazione e' a pagamento ma ne vale la pena. Servizio gratuito wifi e acqua frigo bar inclusa. Comoda la logistica (vicino a metro Placa d'Espanya). Per una sera vale la pena di vedere le fontane illuminate del vicinissimo Montjuic.

9.2

Room at the hotel in Barcelona,Spain was much nicer than the room in Kalev Spa, Tallinn. But, what I like about Kalev Spa Hotel, breakfast was included and the swimming pool with 5-6 different hot tubs were available.

It's a american style mordern hotel. The room is simply decorated. The location is good(near the Monjuic Park). But I disappointed at the breakfast because the salade is not fresh and the hot buffet need another charge.
